Things that please me - Part 5

[dales.girl38]

We got upgraded from premium economy to business class on a MEL > LA flight back when V Australia was quite new, so we weren't loyal customers or anything. They didn't even tell us we'd been upgraded, they were just profusely apologising that their pyjama supplier hadn't delivered and we wouldn't be getting our pyjamas - we were just like "ummm sure" (thinking that we didn't realise premium economy people got pj's), then they directed us to the lounge, then we looked at our tickets and walked fast in case they'd made a mistake

Had to google it, omg what a cool puzzle , 7.5 x 1.5m , looks like I’m doing it in the garage

My threshold for boredom is too low

 

[Shell]

Yall sadists

To the puzzleheads, maybe I'm a bit too ambitious but I have as my No. 1 target the Educa 42k puzzle.

I'd love to try this one

Spring.

It's my favourite time of year. Back into t-shirt, shorts and sandals. My apple trees are starting to come to life. I've got lots of birds that seem to like my house. There's a tiny couple that perch on the chairs under my back deck and cuddle. There's a pair of brightly coloured parrots that often sit under my front veranda. I'm not sure how many birds live in my big palm tree - when I drove down my driveway earlier about 20 birds flews out of it. There's lots of little bunnies hopping around.

 

[rocker_oz33]

I found a birds nest while cleaning up around the yard.

Interesting how they make them .
I felt inside it no eggs or anything.
Very soft and comfy if I was a bird I would wanna live in there ..good digs..

For those who want a slightly different challenge to the larger puzzles, there's always these - they're both 234 pieces, but the finished puzzle is the size of an old school printed photo

Each puzzle actually came with tweezers to assist with putting it together

 

[cats_09]

I also enjoyed these as something different - they're part of the 4-Fronts series, so there's no top or bottom and instead it's the idea you can start anywhere or if working on the puzzle with someone else, then you all look a specific side as being correct & not upside down




This is only 200 pieces but all internal pieces are the same shape & it's from Rubik's so it's a complete dot pattern - identifying the small differences when selecting the next piece




And these next lot are just colourful & fun - they're each 1000 piece but came together really quickly because of how dynamic the colours & patterns were. So a really good option when one doesn't want to think too much

Yeah might have to get the push mower out, you mean these ratbags, they would never eat a puzzle piece

If you have any family who are wine aficionados and like doing puzzles I can highly recommend these:

www.waterandwines.com

Not cheap but less painful when bought in a bundle, and have been very popular gifts with a few friends of ours who are ordinarily very hard to buy for.

They also do whisky puzzles and I think beer puzzles are coming

They’re the kind I prefer. They can be done fairly quickly.
